ACC trio achieve 7H1s in Leaving Cert

Three Athlone Community College students recorded a perfect 7H1s in their Leaving Certificate.

The school welcomed back the class of 2023 to share in their success, having received their results today.

The school said students had exceeded all expectations in their Leaving Certificate examinations. Amazingly, almost all of the LCA class received Distinctions while an extremely high percentage of students achieved scores in excess of 500 and 600 points in their Leaving Certificate.

Three students in particular, Shauna Loftus, Johanna Hughes and Zayna Ganly received 7H1s, a perfect score across the board.

A school spokesperson said: "The Leaving Certificate is about more than points and we can honestly share that each and every one of our students are a credit to themselves, their families and their school. During their time here in ACC, they worked hard, contributed to the school community, acted as role models and always carried themselves proudly as ambassadors of our school. We wish them every success in the next chapter of their lives and we know their stars will continue to shine brightly."
